Yeah - I’ve tried metas controllers and it felt clumsy and effortfull to use the UI. The descriptions of Apple’s eye tracking sound far superior. Why wouldn’t makers of light saber toys just add a buzzer? That would be…

> won’t have a controller standard to work against There is no reason this is how it would play out.
By haptics you mean a buzzer? That doesn’t replicate any kind of real-world experience. But again - there is no reason gamers can’t have a control, but it’s silly to use a game controller to interact with a computing…
It’s compatible with any Bluetooth controller, but I see no reason it would be a nonstarter. Remember it has full hand tracking. If you want to hold something e.g. a lightsaber or whatever, there is no reason not to. An…

The rest of the article puts it in context. They have had bad experiences with the photos app prompting them with inappropriate ‘memories’, and this is reminding them of that.
Confirmation bias is never a prior.
This isn’t true.
The headline is an outright lie. Later in the article they say: Some kinds of data are always end-to-end encrypted, even with the default standard data protection: Passwords and Keychain Health data Home data Messages…
That makes sense - it looked very much like a pure open source project. I wonder if they came to him or if someone else facilitated it as opposed to it being his initiative.
> I can’t help think Apple’s sudden interest in making web apps more useful has to do with visionOS. Of course it does. But that has nothing to do with the cynical conspiratorial manipulation you then go on to describe.

I think you know that downloading an unsigned binary from the internet and executing it on your personal machine is utter stupidity from a security point of view.
Presumably the endgame for Neuralink is to give people direct perception of the truth, as determined by TruthGPT from the content on Twitter.
All you have to do is try one in an Apple store when they come out, and then you’ll be able to get a better understanding. It’s easy to just claim it’s worthless without firsthand experience. It’s not so easy to…
Am MBP plus a studio display is about $3.5k. Nobody seems to object to that pricing.
A lot of postmodern thought results in the formation of cults, in which people occupy a virtual world inside their own minds.
Most US developers are not producing versions for Chinese app stores. That’s a red herring. Of course individual products have their own idiosyncrasies, but is it in fact the case that on average, an app on iOS will…
Yes, but why?
Yeah - I mean obviously I don’t know that Apple has solved this. If they have, it’s a clear winner as far as I’m concerned.
No it’s not more complicated. iOS brings in twice as much app revenue than Android in total. What you’ve said doesn’t change this at all.
Right - and the Quest Pro isn’t well compared to what Apple is marketing here. I couldn’t accept a job working with a VR company because I couldn’t get past the nausea the Quest Pro induces in me. I think the point is…
